Need You Now novel Chapter 277

Kevin was not a native in A city. He went there occasionally because his college was in A city and Hearst was one of his best friends. He was born and raised in C City, where his parents lived. Heidy didn't know much about Kevin.

"I came to C City for work usually, but I didn't expect to meet your parents this time. Kevin, will they see through our tricks? If something unexpected happens, I'm afraid I can't handle it," said Heidy, worried.

After hearing her, Kevin said with a smile, "It's okay. My parents are nice people. The point is that they want me to bring a girl home. You can rest assured that they will not make any trouble for you. Besides, I'm also here."

Hearing his words, Heidy felt relieved and said with a smile, "That's good. I will try my best so that they won't find out what we are doing."

Kevin smiled at her and said, "Okay, you are beautiful. My parents will like you very much. My mother always values one's appearance. She said that if I found a beautiful wife, her grandchildren would also be as beautiful as their mother."

Heidy chuckled and said jokingly, "Your mom is funny, but she's right. See Gavin and Elsa, right?"

Kevin nodded in agreement and said, "Yes. Both you and Hearst are good-looking people. Of course your child will be great."

"You're also handsome. Among the people I know, you're the top three," Heidy said sincerely.

Hearing his words, Kevin said with a smile on his face, "Wow, I'm flattered."

They finally arrived at his parents' house while chatting. Looking at the huge quaint mansion, Heidy said in surprise, "Kevin, you have a rich family, don't you?"

"Kind of. My father is the Secretary General of the city," said Kevin flatly.

She looked at him in astonishment. Then she blinked her eyes and said, "Your father is a politician!"

Kevin patted her on the head and said with a smile, "Yes. Let's go inside. My parents must have been waiting there for a long time and want to see you."

Heidy took a deep breath and was about to walk forward, but Kevin suddenly hold her hand. Seeing this, Heidy looked at him, puzzled. Then she realized what was going on. She held his hand with a smile and walked inside with him side by side. Since she was doing him a favor, she should do it right.

A spacious courtyard came into view at the gate. The decor was quite elegant and unique. Then she saw a couple sitting on the sofa in the living room, waiting for them. The moment Heidy saw them, she recognized that they were the parents of Kevin.

"Father, mother, Heidy's here," said Kevin in a calm voice.

With a bow, she greeted them politely, "Nice to meet you, uncle and auntie. My name is Heidy."

Kevin's parents looked at her from head to toe and said with satisfaction, "Miss Heidy, you are so beautiful. My son indeed has a good taste."

On hearing their compliments, Heidy said with a gentle smile, "Thank you."

Before coming here, Kevin had told his parents something about Heidy, including that her marriage. Therefore, Kevin's parents showed their understanding while chatting.

"Me and Kevin's father are open-minded. We don't care that you have been married, as long as our son likes you. Kevin had been single all these years, and went out with one girl before. He didn't want to rush things in marriage, which really worried us a lot. Look the white hair we have," Dale said with a smile.

Sitting opposite to her, Heidy said with a smile, "Maybe Kevin takes love relationship more seriously, so he would be more cautious when it comes to marriage."

Dale nodded in agreement. She said with a smile, "You're right. Kevin's father has introduced many girls to him, all of whom are daughters from rich families or have great political background. However, he just doesn't interested in them. So you are destined to be with each other."

Thinking of her destiny with Hearst, Heidy felt bitter. Nodding her head, Heidy smiled, "Yes, fate is really important. Even if you are not lucky enough to meet and be in love with someone, all of the efforts were in vain if they are not meant for each other."

"By the way, Heidy, how many kids do you want after marriage? I heard that you divorced your husband and had a child," Dale asked suddenly.

Heidy, who was drinking the water, was choked and her face flushed immediately. She suddenly didn't know how to answer this question. After all, she was just faking it. She turned to look at Kevin for help. As soon as he got her signal, he stood up and walked up to her.

Sitting down beside her, Kevin said in a low voice, "Mom, this is the first time that she has come to our home. Don't scare her. If you scare her away, I'm afraid I'll have to be single for a few years."

His words surprised Dale and she asked in a hurry, "Did I scare you? Don't take this the wrong way. Both my husband and I like kids. Besides, Kevin is nearly thirty-one years old now. That's why we are in such a hurry."

Keeping a smile, Heidy nodded and answered, "It's all right. This is reasonable. I can understand it since Kevin is your only son."

Hearing this, Dale smiled with satisfaction, "It's good that you understand it. Look at our old friends and classmates, they have updated the photos of their grandsons on Instagram everyday, and we have not started yet. Heidy, you can also bring your daughter with you next time you come here. Don't worry. If you and Kevin get married, I'll also treat her as my granddaughter."

Seeing Kevin's mother being so kind, Heidy felt warm in her heart.

After dinner, Heidy was about to leave with Kevin when Dale said kindly, "Kevin, Heidy, why don't you just stay here for the night? It was too late to go back to A city now, and several hours' drive would be exhausting. I've asked the servant to tide up Kevin's room."

Hearing Dale's words, beads of sweat rushed out from Heidy's forehead. She turned to look at Kevin for help, thinking about how to explain. Seeing this, Dale smiled and said, "Haven't you two slept together? Nowadays, it's common for young people to try it before they get married."

Heidy smiled awkwardly and said, "Aunt, you are indeed very open-minded."

"Yes, that's exactly what I think. What do you say, Heidy?" Dale asked with a friendly smile. "There are some interesting places in C City. If I have time tomorrow, I can show you around. What do you think?"

Heidy didn't know how to answer, so she said with a smile, "I will listen to Kevin."

Kevin looked at his watch and said, "All right. We'll stay here tonight."

Hearing his promise, Heidy was shocked. But when she thought that she had already promised to help, she decided to continue the act. Thinking of this, Heidy didn't say anything more.

In the bedroom, Heidy pointed at the sofa and said with a smile, "I will sleep on the sofa tonight. It is my size."

"No, I'll sleep on the sofa," said Kevin in a calm voice.

"If you sleep on that sofa, you will feel backache tomorrow. I'm short. It's okay," said Heidy with a smile. When she was about to walk pass him, Kevin took her by the wrist. Seeing this, Heidy looked at him in confusion.

Pointing at the bed, Kevin said lightly, "We could both sleep on the bed. The bed is big enough. I can sleep on the outer side."

'What?' Her face flushed red and she looked at him in surprise. 'Sleeping on the same bed with another man is...' "It okay. The sofa is good for me," said Heidy with a smile.

"It's likely that my mom would go inside the room to check us at midnight," explained Kevin.

She looked at him in astonishment. Then she said, "Aunt, she is... she is awesome."

"Yes, she has always been," said Kevin flatly.

Having hesitated for a while, eventually, Heidy agreed to sleep on the same bed with Kevin. The two of them lay separately on the edge, with a long distance between them. Grabbing the quilt, she was nervous. Even under the quilt and nothing happened between them, she still felt her heart beat faster.

With her eyes fixed on the ceiling, in order to relieve the awkward atmosphere, she asked in curiosity, "Kevin, why you not get married?"

"I would rather stay single if I don't meet someone I like," explained Kevin.

Nodding approvingly, Heidy said with a smile, "Well, I heard from your mother that things went great between you and your ex-girlfriend, but why did you break up with her at last?"

The air was quiet. Heidy thought he wouldn't answer such a sensitive question. After a long while, Kevin replied calmly, "There was someone else. We broke up because she fell in love with someone."

Heidy turned to look at him in surprise. She didn't expect that he had a similar experience as her. Thinking of this, Heidy comforted him, "You can do better."

"You too," replied Kevin.

Heidy smiled and said: "I hope so."

She was a little nervous and couldn't fall asleep in peace. Seeing this, Kevin said in a low voice, "Don't worry. I won't touch you. And, thank you for what you did today."

Hearing his words, Heidy smiled and said, "You helped me a lot. Actually, it's good to help you. I know you are a gentleman. I have nothing to worry about." Then she closed her eyes to have a rest.

The night grew darker, and she slowly fell asleep. Kevin turned to look at her sleeping face and smiled. Lying on the same bed and looking at her from a short distance was wired for Kevin.

Closing his eyes, Kevin said slowly, "Good night."

As time went by, they fell asleep slowly. Would they have the same dream?
